Los Angeles County Supervisor, proudly serving the 2nd District.

For our October Racial Justice Learning Exchange, For our October Racial Justice Learning Exchange, we gathered at SEED School LA, in the historic Manchester and Vermont Corridor, to reflect on the lasting impact of the 1992 Uprising. We brought together a cross-cultural, multigenerational group of residents from South LA and Koreatown, including those who experienced the Uprising firsthand and more than 80 young people who are benefiting from the lessons learned and the community organizations that emerged in its aftermath.
 
Thank you to our guest speakers, Johng Ho Song, Executive Director of Koreatown Youth and Community Center (KYCC), and Saundra Bryant, former Executive Director of All Peoples Community Center. And thank you to our partners for helping make these meaningful connections possible: @theseedschoolla @cocosouthla, @kyccla, Koreatown Storytelling Program and Alliance Judy Ivie Burton Technology Academy High School.

Today, we broke ground on an exciting new chapter Today, we broke ground on an exciting new chapter for the @thelabreatarpits! 

As I looked at the students from the Girls Academic Leadership Academy (GALA) who were onsite to witness this historic moment, I was reminded that reimagining the La Brea Tar Pits is about more than preserving our past. It’s about investing in our future and inviting all LA County residents - and the world - to participate in scientific discovery and help shape solutions to our changing environment.

Thank you to the Natural History Museum leadership and staff, our partners at every level of government, and our generous supporters, especially Lynda Oschin and the Samuel Oschin Family Foundation, for helping bring this vision to life.

I look forward to our communities experiencing the transformed Tar Pits in 2028!
Congratulations to the City of Los Angeles on its Congratulations to the City of Los Angeles on its unanimous yes vote to ban new oil and phase out existing oil production within the next two decades. 

Neighborhood oil drilling will not end overnight, which is why it will take every city and all levels of government working to put an end to it. 

Our phase out process to end urban oil drilling in LA County is underway as a result of the Board of Supervisors support for my motion calling for the end of oil drilling in unincorporated communities. 

Everyone deserves access to clean air, a healthy environment, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing their community is safe. Together, we must continue working to making this a reality.
LA County is proud to recognize National Immigrant LA County is proud to recognize National Immigrant Day and stand with the more than 3.5 million immigrant residents who shape the culture, history, and lived experiences that make LA County so special.

Thank you to @chirla_org, Refugee Forum of Los Angeles, Black Alliance for Just Immigration (@instabaji), Asian American Pacific Islander Equity Alliance (@aapiequityalliance), and all the community organizations and residents who celebrate and advocate for our immigrant communities every day.

Ongoing attacks on basic human rights and efforts to push people off the health care services they need, make it all the more important to reaffirm our commitment to protecting immigrant communities and the dignity of all people. This is the work we must do together.

Please connect with the organizations listed above and join us in sharing information about resources available through the LA County Office of Immigrant Affairs: oia.lacounty.gov
How fortunate we all are to have known Dolores Hue How fortunate we all are to have known Dolores Huerta. Her life was a testament to what it meant to act on the belief that every person deserves to live and work with dignity. We have lost a pioneering leader who, at 96 years old, was still showing us what courage looks like. I am one of the countless people who have been touched by her unstoppable spirit, and I am grateful to have called her a friend.
 
I extend my deepest condolences to her loved ones. May she rest in power and peace.

Ask the LA Times, I’m not new to this. I’ve alread Ask the LA Times, I’m not new to this. I’ve already made it clear that I will not be running for the new countywide elected Chief Executive position in 2028, which is why I have no problem joining Supervisor Barger (@supervisorkathrynbarger) in taking the pledge not to run for this seat.
 
It is a clear conflict of interest for any current sitting member of the Board of Supervisors to pursue the County Executive seat, this continues to become more evident as we work on implementing Measure G, which includes deciding on the salary and other governance changes that will impact this new position and other big changes to the County’s governance structure.
